Resting membrane potentials Definition: Large nerve fibers when not transmitting nerve signals is about 90 millivolt. That is‚ the potential inside the fiber is 90 millivolts more negative than the potential in the extracellular fluid on the outside of the fiber. The Na+-k+ pump also causes large concentration gradients for sodium and potassium across the resting nerve membrane. These gradients are the following: Sodium ( outside): 142 mEq/L Sodium ( inside): 14 mEq/L Potassium ( outside):

CHAPTER 9 OLIGOPOLY AND FIRM ARCHITECTURE 1. The demand function for a product sold by an oligopolist is given below: QD = 370 – P The firm’s marginal cost function is given below: MC = 10 + 4Q Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity. Solution: P = 370 – Q so TR = 370Q – Q2 and MR = 370 – 2Q MR = 370 – 2Q = 10 + 4Q = MC so Q = 60 and P = 310 2.
